Clément Juglar, (15 October 1819 in Paris – 28 February 1905 in Paris) was a French doctor and statistician.

Juglar Cycles

He was one of the first to develop an economic theory of business cycles.[1] He identified the 7-11 year industrial credit cycle that is now associated with his name. His publications led to other business cycle theories by later economists such as Joseph Schumpeter. The recent research employing spectral analysis has confirmed the presence of Juglar cycles in the world GDP dynamics up to the present time.[2]
